Peatlands cover 3 million square kilometers around the globe and in the UK around 80 percent of them are damaged. "The sad reality at the moment is that our peat bogs are in such poor condition that they're net emitters of carbon, because they're degrading," said G...
The geophysical response variations are examined in detail using example data sets across lowland areas (raised bogs, meres, fens and afforested peat) and upland areas of blanket bog, together with associated wetland zones. The radiometric data do not map soils per se. The bedrock (the ...
This marked the start of the first onshore depleted field storage facility in the UK and it was supported by a 25-year storage contract between Edinburgh Oil and Gas. The UGS site has three wellheads capable of injecting gas into the reservoir, although only two are used to withdraw gas ...
Much like there is more than one type of peatland – blanket bogs, raised bogs and fens in the UK –there is more than one type of relationship, pattern of use, land ownership regime, etc. that these stewards have with these multi-use, cultural landscapes. A carbon offsetting scheme in ...
Peatlands are divided into two main ecological types; raised bogs dominate in the hemiboreal and southern boreal zones and aapa mires in the middle and northern boreal zones (Eurola et al., 1994). The thickness of peat deposits varies up to 10.2 m with mean thickness of 1.4 m (Virtanen...

leaves. Our study was carried out on three peat bogs subjected to different degree of anthropopression, which gave us also the opportunity to identify local emission sources. Pine needles had the lowest accumulation potential from all the studied species. The highest accumulation potential, and ...
British gardeners are wrecking Ireland's environment by buying peat cut from nature reserves, leaving vast areas of countryside barren.Carrell, Severin
